Hi Roy:

The normal use of scale/offset works fine.

The known bug in 2.2 is not correctly enhancing members of structures.

Rich reported a bug probably related to aggregation, but im not sure of the
scope of it. In 4.0, I  did a more careful job on getting enhancement correct,
so im not surprised its now fixed.

I expect 4.0 to be reasonably stable within the month.

Hi John:

Our "Environmental Data Connector" at he moment is using
toolsUI-2.2.22.jar.  Rich Signell, in testing it with some model output,
found that it did not apply the scale and offset from a file, which he
said is a known bug in that version of toolsUI and is fixed in
toolsUI-4.0.jar.

Questions:

1.  Is Rich's assertion basically correct?

2.  Is toolsUI-4.0.jar stable enough to use in the EDC?

I know that package names etc have been changed between versions, so
that will take some programming, but that is a different issue.  For
now, we just want to know you thoughts if we were to use toolsUI-4.0.jar
in the application.

Thanks,

-Roy
